Also available and of interest is The Casselman Architecture Image Collection
This collection contains over four thousand color slides and black and white photographs of medieval Spain taken by the late Eugene Casselman (1912-1996) during his thirty years of travel throughout the Iberian peninsula. The images span over one thousand years of architectural history, from the seventh to the seventeenth century. The majority of the photographs focus on the Mudejar style, but there is also extensive documentation of Umayyad, Visigothic, Mozarabic and Romanesque sculpture and architecture.
